PMID: 26466278
Opt Lett. 2014 Sep 15;39(18):5383-6. doi: 10.1364/OL.39.005383.

We report on the first table-top high-flux source of coherent soft x-ray radiation up to 400 eV, operating at 1 kHz. This source covers the carbon K-edge with a beam brilliance of (4.3±1.2)×10(15) photons/s/mm(2)/strad/10% bandwidth and a photon flux...

Spatiotemporal isolation of attosecond soft X-ray pulses in the water window.

Nature communications

Silva F, Teichmann SM, Cousin SL, Hemmer M, Biegert J.
PMID: 25790345
Nat Commun. 2015 Mar 19;6:6611. doi: 10.1038/ncomms7611.

Attosecond pulses at photon energies that cover the principal absorption edges of the building blocks of materials are a prerequisite for time-resolved probing of the triggering events leading to electronic dynamics such as exciton formation and annihilation. We demonstrate...

The iTRAPs: Guardians of Synaptic Vesicle Cargo Retrieval During Endocytosis.

Frontiers in synaptic neuroscience

Gordon SL, Cousin MA.
PMID: 26903854
Front Synaptic Neurosci. 2016 Feb 09;8:1. doi: 10.3389/fnsyn.2016.00001. eCollection 2016.

The reformation of synaptic vesicles (SVs) during endocytosis is essential for the maintenance of neurotransmission in central nerve terminals. Newly formed SVs must be generated with the correct protein cargo in the correct stoichiometry to be functional for exocytosis....

Three-wave mixing mediated femtosecond pulse compression in β-barium borate.

Optics letters

Grün A, Austin DR, Cousin SL, Biegert J.
PMID: 26469593
Opt Lett. 2015 Oct 15;40(20):4679-82. doi: 10.1364/OL.40.004679.

Nonlinear pulse compression mediated by three-wave mixing is demonstrated for ultrashort Ti:sapphire pulses in a type II phase-matched β-barium borate (BBO) crystal using noncollinear geometry. 170 μJ pulses at 800 nm with a pulse duration of 74 fs are...

Cell phones and health concerns: impact of knowledge and voluntary precautionary recommendations.

Risk analysis : an official publication of the Society for Risk Analysis

Cousin ME, Siegrist M.
PMID: 20880217
Risk Anal. 2011 Feb;31(2):301-11. doi: 10.1111/j.1539-6924.2010.01498.x. Epub 2010 Sep 29.

The article explores how voluntary precautionary recommendations for cell phone usage influence people's health concerns and behavior. An experimental study using a sample of Swiss citizens (N=408) was conducted. Three different versions of a newly developed booklet, which focused...

Proteinase (Cathepsin B, D, L and Calpains) levels and conditioning rates in normal, electrically stimulated and high-ultimate-pH chicken muscle.

Meat science

Etherington DJ, Taylor MA, Wakefield DK, Cousins A, Dransfield E.
PMID: 22055511
Meat Sci. 1990;28(2):99-109. doi: 10.1016/0309-1740(90)90034-4.

Control, electrically stimulated (ES) and glycogen-depleted (GD) chicken muscles were conditioned at 15°C with continuous mechanical testing for extensibility. The ES and GD muscles went into rigor 3·6 and 2·8 h earlier, respectively, than control muscle. At 24h post-rigor...

Draft Genome Sequence of Lactobacillus hominis Strain CRBIP 24.179T, Isolated from Human Intestine.

Genome announcements

Cousin S, Creno S, Ma L, Clermont D, Loux V, Bizet C, Bouchier C.
PMID: 23969062
Genome Announc. 2013 Aug 22;1(4). doi: 10.1128/genomeA.00662-13.

We report the draft genome sequence of the strain Lactobacillus hominis CRBIP 24.179(T), isolated from a human clinical sample. The total length of the 28 contigs is about 1.9 Mb, with a G+C content of 37% and 1,983 coding...

Harnessing the power of genomics and immunoinformatics to produce improved vaccines.

Expert opinion on drug discovery

Moise L, Cousens L, Fueyo J, De Groot AS.
PMID: 22646824
Expert Opin Drug Discov. 2011 Jan;6(1):9-15. doi: 10.1517/17460441.2011.534454. Epub 2010 Dec 01.

The role of cellular immunity as a mediator of protection against disease is gaining recognition, particularly with regard to the many pathogens for which we presently lack effective vaccines. As a result, there is an ever-increasing need to understand...

Few-cycle pulse characterization with an acousto-optic pulse shaper.

Optics letters

Cousin SL, Forget N, Grün A, Bates PK, Austin DR, Biegert J.
PMID: 21808318
Opt Lett. 2011 Aug 01;36(15):2803-5. doi: 10.1364/OL.36.002803.

An acousto-optic pulse shaper has been used to characterize few-cycle pulses generated in a hollow-core fiber. A grism pair precompensates for the dispersion of the acousto-optic crystal, allowing the full pulse-shaping window to be used for replica generation rather...

Detection of Mold in Processed Foods by High Performance Liquid Chromatography .

Journal of food protection

Lin HH, Cousin MA.
PMID: 30939663
